Industrial heat is one of the hardest parts of the energy transition.

This sand battery is now delivering fossil-free heat for industry, storing renewable electricity as high-temperature heat and releasing it when needed. Simple idea, big impact.

From the start, the focus of the Trump administration's approach to Ukraine has been on US enrichment, friendly relations with Russia, and getting everyone else to treat Russia like a great power. The survival of Ukraine and European security are entirely irrelevant.

Left: Zia Yusuf, "Mandelson deserves to be in jail. The buck stops with the executive, Keir Starmer is a disgrace to his office and should resign"

Right: Nathan Gill is in jail for accepting Russian bribes. Using Zia Yusuf's logic, isn't Nigel Farage also a disgrace, and should also resign?

"To support Nigel Farage and his far-right agenda is to betray every man and woman who gave their lives during the Second World War fighting the extremism that threatens to topple Europe once more.
True patriots know this."

Farage lectures on “errors of judgement”
on Mandelson.
Rather hypocritical one might think from the man who appointed a man who is now doing 10 years in prison for accepting Russian bribes to undermine the UK

The best hope of forcing Putin to stop his genocidal invasion is to push Russia toward bankruptcy. The $12 trillion partnership deal that is reportedly being negotiated with the US is the exact opposite

Why are the comedy team of Witkoff and Kushner the lead negotiators on …. ANYTHING???

No Senate approval. No confirmation process.

The only expertise these two have is the ability to enrich themselves.

What the fuck are they whinging about?

If you can spend £3-a-day on that pack of printed lies, then £5.50 a year seems very good value.

Both stories about Reform UK Party Ltd’s Gorton & Denton campaign are true — they, laughably, reported Labour to the police over a ‘misleading’ video, and now they face a police investigation over breaking by-election law with deliberately misleading campaign material.
